Highest And Lowest Country ETF Dividend Yields

US equities have outperformed the rest of the world for a long time now. While the US is up 58% on a total return basis during the current bull market, the rest of the world is up 13.5 percentage points less at +44.5%. Looking at the international dividend ETF over a longer time frame, over the last five years, it's up 20.6% in price and more than double that on a total return basis.

ECH: A Well-Constructed Fund With Favorable Prospects

Chile's ETF has underperformed, but it is structurally one of the most attractive in Latin America. Chile's outlook has improved with the rise in commodity prices over the past few years. The country's ETF is surprisingly diversified and has broader exposure than many single country funds can offer.

ECH: More Than Just Copper

The iShares MSCI Chile ETF provides diversified exposure to Chile's economy beyond Copper, with top holdings in Financials and Materials sectors. ECH is the only fund offering pure-play exposure to the Chilean equity market, with unique sector mix including Financials, Materials, and Utilities. While ECH has underperformed compared to the US S&P 500, it may offer long-term potential for investors seeking exposure to a well-diversified emerging economy like Chile.

ECH: Fade Chile's Copper Bounce

A surge in copper prices may have sent Chilean large caps higher. But looking past the cyclical bounce, the same through-cycle issues remain. The yield helps, but investors still aren't getting much value here.

ECH: Lukewarm On Chile, Despite Yield And Value Features

ECH tracks Chile's investable market index and has a large exposure to its lithium industry, which will continue to be in demand for the production of EVs. Chile's economic growth was stifled in 2023, but key indicators suggest growth is on the horizon. ECH is well-positioned to offer investors both value and yield with possible upside potential.

Brief Run Through New Investments

Overall, it's been a difficult year, natural resources not the place to be. Rough performance right now is looking to be roughly flat. As something of an outlier, I have bought iShares Chile ETF. I was looking for cheap stocks around the world and Chile leapt out as ridiculously cheap. Next targets are more stocks in China / South America, and potentially some PE funds / fund of funds / similar ideas in the UK.

ECH ETF - Things Are Looking Up

The iShares MSCI Chile ETF has underperformed global stocks this year, with uncertainty around the rewriting of the constitution playing a part. We touch upon some notable macro cogs that are improving. ECH is dirt-cheap from a valuation angle, and the risk-reward on the charts looks compelling.
